Golden flecks of pineapple give these burgers a touch of sweetness, while the ginger root adds some spice. Ground chicken works well in this recipe, too. —Margaret Wilson, Hemet, California

I've made this as the recipe states and they were delicious. I also modified it using all turkey, a 93/7 lean combine with ground turkey breast. That doubles the amount of meat called for so I doubled the rest and made meatloaf out of it and it was fantastic. I make this about once a month!

THese fell apart completely when I tried to cook them. I followed the recipe exactly and I ended up with Teriyaki Manwiches.

These were great. So tender and juicy. I would add a little more soy sauce to give it more of a kick. My 12 month old even liked them and she doesn't usually like ground beef. YUM!!

These were good and juicy, but several of my burgers fell apart when we tried to create a sandwich of them. I guess the ground turkey just doesn't stay together as well as ground beef. Also, I think there may have been just a little too much pineapple in these - in the sauce, in the burger and then a big slice on top. A little overwhelming for some of my diners.
